Who mounted/dismounted it the first time? Have that bastid that did that get you a new tire. If the bead will seal and hold air it should be fine but apparently its not and not good at all for a low profile tire especially on a sports car.

The tire techs will use a grease or soap and water to prevent the bead from ripping.

Chunk the tire bro. It's no good and the tire shop should replace for free for being stupid
